Consistency Ban valid?

[SevenPointFive]

Someone in my clan was banned for a sv_consistency violation and he said he'd recently downloaded a new skin, is it possible for a skin to set off a consistency ban?

L 26/02/2010 - 02:42:13: Bad CVar response! tAdOw^tOAST (STEAM_0:0:xxxxx108) has sv_consistency (sv_consistency) set to 1
L 26/02/2010 - 02:42:13: tAdOw^tOAST (STEAM_0:0:xxxx108) was banned for cheating. KAC ID:5.15

The main point of this post though is just to find out whether skins can actually set off a KAC consistency ban


Edit - He says he also has a map mod decal that changes the spray on DD2 into a picture of a chick (lold). Server has sv_pure 1 active but still wondering whether that may cause the ban.
